Syllabus
Lecture notes
Statistics and Error Analysis
Introduction to electronic circuits
Introduction to Genplot
Radioactivity
Vacuum Techniques
Detection of high-energy particles
Semiconductors and Optics
Superconductors and Cryogenics
Online course for handling sealed radiation sources - Read the material and take online test. After completing the test you will be issued a monitoring badge which is required for experiments involving radioactive sources (Mossbauer, Beta spectrum and Positron labs)
